Keep LinkedIn connected

LinkedIn access ends every 60 days. Check whether yours is still working and reconnect it when it is not.

Available on All plans

LinkedIn ends access every 60 days for every app that posts on your behalf. It is not something the app can extend, and it is not a sign anything has gone wrong. It means you reconnect roughly every two months.

Check whether you are still connected

  1. 1

    Open Settings, then select the Social Connections tab.

  2. 2

    Look under the heading CONNECTED. Your account appears there with the word Connected beneath your name.

Reconnect

  1. 1

    Select Reconnect — LinkedIn access expires every 60 days, beneath the connected account.

  2. 2

    Sign in to LinkedIn and allow access. You return to Settings.

  3. 3

    Open Schedule and select Failed above the list, to check whether anything was due while access was out.

If something goes wrong

If posts are failing and the account still shows as connected, open Schedule, select Failed, and rest the pointer on the platform icon in the row. It names the platform that failed, in the form LinkedIn: failed.
